I get sick of the sycophants bleating about feeling sorry for the families of the accused ..... what about the families of innocent industry participants getting tarred with the same brush as the alleged cheats? 1 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

the galah Posted September 14, 2018 Share Posted September 14, 2018 3 hours ago, Counter Punch said: And what, Taku? So Greg O was interviewed by police. Nearly three quarters of the harness racing industry in the Canterbury region have been interviewed by Police but just because the lowly Christchurch Star, which runs on sensationalism more than The Press, decide to imply he is at the heart and soul we therefore must label him as guilty? It just states he has information that may lead to him being a possible witness, and that he has not been charged with anything. I don't take that as an implication of any guilt. I guess if you were Mr o"connor you may feel a lot of unwanted attention. I do agree the headline of this post is misleading. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sorry Taku, frustration wasn't at you. I was more meaning the headline of this thread. I'm all for justice being served if allegations are correct, however it frustrates me that every time I log on to this site I see this thread, in capital letters sticking out like dog balls. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
